Collection and locality
The printed label is that of the Императорское Русское Общество Акклиматизации. Флористическое Отделение (Imperial Russian Society of Acclimatisation, Floristic Section). It carries the name Cannabis sativa L. by hand, a faint stamp giving the collector, the town and the year, М. А.

A separate slip in pencil reads Дикая Конопля (wild hemp).[2] The catalogue gives the collector, the year, the place and a point.[1] The sheet gives no day, month, number or habitat.
Specimen and identification
